When I want to listen to the word 'awesome', I could do that in Google Chrome; not in Firefox. johndkruse@gmail.com
This image from the Dutch meaning of the English Awesome (normally the othter way round), you can see I tried to play in audio the Dutch meaning 'ontzagwekkend'. In Google Chrome that worked, and I heard a man or woman speaker. In Firefox there is no feed to the soundcard of the computer.
By the way; the opload of the image doesn't finish!

I understand that uploading images do not finish, please check to make sure the site you are uploading to supports the image type and the file size.
As for speech recognition in Firefox, this is beginning to be worked on in Gecko and can be accessed through the Web Speech API. It currently is not supported in Firefox https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/d.../Web_Speech_API#Browser_compatibility
On what page do you have a button to play the pronunciation of this word?
On the Google Translate page you may have to allow the Flash plugin, so check if there is a Lego block icon on the at the left end of the location/address bar.

Presumably you could not upload to this forum.
For some reason parts of the (support.mozilla) Sumo forum will handle large files and compress them as necessary but this support forum does not. If uploading to the support forum you will need to use a small file such as a .png or.jpeg image and not large uncompressed bitmap.
In Windows the snipping tool generates suitable files. XP will not have that but it's paint gives options to save as that will convert image files.
